(1). Calendar year. Baseline is current law plus an AMT patch; extension of the 10, 25, and 28 percent tax rates, marriage penalty relief, child tax credit, child and
dependent care credit, student loan interest deduction; and 0%/15% rate on capital gains and qualified dividends except for taxpayers in the top two brackets. Proposal
would repeal the limitation on itemized deductions (Pease) and the personal exemption phaseout (PEP) for taxpayers with adjusted gross income less than $250,000 for
married couples, and $200,000 for others, indexed for inflation after 2009.
(2) Tax units with negative cash income are excluded from the lowest income class but are included in the totals. For a description of cash income, see
http://www.taxpolicycenter.org/TaxModel/income.cfm
(3) Includes both filing and non-filing units but excludes those that are dependents of other tax units.
(4) After-tax income is cash income less: individual income tax net of refundable credits; corporate income tax; payroll taxes (Social Security and Medicare); and estate
tax.
(5) Average federal tax (includes individual and corporate income tax, payroll taxes for Social Security and Medicare, and the estate tax) as a percentage of average
cash income.

(1). Calendar year. Baseline is current law plus an AMT patch; extension of the 10, 25, and 28 percent tax rates, marriage penalty relief, child tax credit, child and dependent care credit, student loan interest deduction; and
0%/15% rate on capital gains and qualified dividends except for taxpayers in the top two brackets. Proposal would repeal the limitation on itemized deductions (Pease) and the personal exemption phaseout (PEP) for
taxpayers with adjusted gross income less than $250,000 for married couples, and $200,000 for others, indexed for inflation after 2009.
(2) Tax units with negative cash income are excluded from the lowest income class but are included in the totals. For a description of cash income, see
http://www.taxpolicycenter.org/TaxModel/income.cfm
(3) Includes both filing and non-filing units but excludes those that are dependents of other tax units.
(4) After-tax income is cash income less: individual income tax net of refundable credits; corporate income tax; payroll taxes (Social Security and Medicare); and estate tax.
(5) Average federal tax (includes individual and corporate income tax, payroll taxes for Social Security and Medicare, and the estate tax) as a percentage of average cash income.
